Looking for a server partner

Greetings,

My name is Derek (Dr_Derek in game) and I have been playing Minecraft on and off for the last six years. During this time, I've had the privilege to have many different experiences, including meeting many different people, and owning and running several servers that enjoyed some modest success, but ultimately have since gone due to lack of interest/funding/etc.

After a noteable hiatus, I'm back to playing Minecraft again. For the last several months, I've debated starting up another server. Finally, I've decided that I am going to open a server - Democraftcy. I'm very keen into politics, economics, etc. and have run a successful server with political elements (i.e. nations) and want to try something unique. Democraftcy will be a server with - well - democracy. It will be up to the playerbase to choose the direction of the server in the form of weekly "referendums" whereby players can make proposals for the server and the players will vote on them. Also, the players will, on a monthly basis, elect a "server president" who will oversee the operations of the server (under the guidance and discretion of the owners) and will adhere to the player's demands. This could go horribly wrong, or it could have an amazing outcome. The exciting part is that it's fresh, it's unique, and we don't know what will happen.

I am quite skilled when it comes to "server stuff", being able to configure the server, design the website, code plugins, build, etc. However, I am not the solitary type and like to run communities alongside a balanced partner who will contribute to the project and keep things in check.

So, I am looking for a person who is around 14-20 (I'm 16) who has had a fair amount of experiencing running a server and managing a community, who would be interested in taking on the role of "co-owner", and helping to bring Democraftcy to life. I want someone who can balance out some of the more extreme elements of me (sometimes my goals/ambition are more than I can take on, sometimes I get rude and bitter to players, and I neglect certain parts that are important to look after), and can help materialize a strong-knitted community. This person should be someone who is temperamental, mature, wise, and compatible with my personality (as in, after we talk, I like you - I don't want to work with someone I can't stand). He/she should be willing to commit to this project, not have a lot of other stuff on their plate (i.e. other servers), and should have some skills/abilities that will be useful to the server. This person should have an interest in politics and whatnot like I do so he/she will understand the premise of the server.

Just a bit of a disclaimer, I can become controlling and demanding. Try not to take crap from me, but understand that I am a dominating figure and intend to sort of take the "steering wheel" on this project.

So, if you seem to fit the parameters I specified above, and are interested in helping to bring this project to life (in a relatively quick timeframe), then I would love to have a conversation with you (through Skype, Discord, text, whatever). This could be something really special and it's a really great opportunity for certain types of people.

Thanks for reading,
Derek

Good afternoon, I am the Network owner over at Cortex Gaming Networks, I see you are working on a server game mode that our dev team were interested in working on, add me on discord so we can discuss this further but I feel we could both benefit by working together

Sorry I didn't follow your app format, but technically I'm not making an application

Dear Derek,
I hope you are still looking for a Partner,

After reading through,I can see that you are like me,I love making servers,however,they never get popular,as I get less motivated by time and eventually give up.

I think that if you are like me,I can be a good partner that can give you my full commitment,by being there when you are improving the server.

Why me?While,despite the similarity in our characteristic, I always have a vision of owning a server,lacking skill is my worst enemy and I think you can fill that part up,however I can provide time to the server and improve the community.Also,I am a huge fan of learning new plugins,currently I am trying to learn Skript,however,I cannot find a good tutorial or source I can learn from.

My in-game name is (MyPingSux), PLEASE don't be fooled,I changed my name for comedy as I always have bad ping and usually lose fights because of it,so I made a skin and name for having bad ping.

However,I do have to clarify,that I cannot help in any financial problem,not because I do not want to,but I have no Credit-Cards or Job,I am a student that is a huge fan in making Servers.

I can see a great future for your or "Our" server,and I hope you can see the commitment that I am willing to put on the table for you.I hope that we can talk more in Discord.Thank you for looking at my application.

Your Truely,
MyPingSux

Hey,

I am still looking for a partner who meets the parameters above, and also:

A Deputy Owner who may not necessarily be a suitable partner but can assist the main owners in various ways, and...

A Chief Executive who is a person that can contribute a fair amount financially to the project and have a lot of influence when it comes to the decision making process.

My Discord is dctr_derek#1016 so if you meet the description in the forum post for partner, or are interested in one of the above positions, please leave me a friend request!

I can try, but I don't have a discord. You can Private Message me and we can find a way to talk, if needed. I can tell you right now that my personality is outgoing, and sometimes I can be a bit careless, but I can be practical and I think that'll balance your ambition.
